Dru Hill - 5 Steps Lyrics

I don't know how much longer
You're gonna be here
So I say my prayers every night
One for my mother
One for my father
And one for the love of my life
So if you decide to leave today
Then leave tomorrow at the door
And take only half of yesterday
Forget all hope for the present
Cause it just went away

We were 5 steps
From eternity
We were 4 steps
4 steps past love
And 3 wishes
We were 3 wishes
From touching the heavens above

Said we were 5 steps
From eternity
4 steps
4 steps past love
And 3 wishes
Say that you know it, you know it
From touching the heavens above us

Another day is gone
Another night now dawn
Waiting patiently
Hope that you'll return
But not before long
Why did you say goodbye
I still feel your presence
In my bed at night
And what was reality
Once a true love in form
Is now added pain
For a man's scorn
Forced to wear, the memories of pain
Around an empty heart

Now, I sit in silence and begin to think
As laughter echoes through the air
I can't get over you
But a whole new love
I could never bare
So now I lay me down to sleep
And I pray my lord, my soul to keep
And if I die before I wake
Then I promise
I'll be there for you always


We were 5 steps
From eternity
We were 4 steps
Said 4 steps past love
And 3 wishes
You, you know it
Say it
Touching the heavens above us

5 steps
From eternity
We were 4 steps
Said 4 steps past love
And 3 wishes
Touching the heavens above us

5 steps
From eternity
We were 4 steps
4 steps past love
And 3 wishes
Touching the heavens above us

5 steps
From eternity
We were 4 steps
4 steps past love
And 3 wishes
We were 3 wishes
Touching the heavens above us

Say you know
